Just finished upgrading to a jailbroken copy of 1.1.3 via the official app in Installer.app. It worked like a charm with no hitches whatsoever! Woot! It kept all my songs, videos, settings, etc., but I did have to redownload all of my custom applications. Sadly, Summerboard doesn’t let itself install under 1.1.3, but I may be able to hack around it if I can just get SFTP working…

It is really nice to finally see the Webclip for FinalGear in person though:

UPDATE: I was trying to login as “mobile” (the new user that everything runs under in 1.1.3) rather than “root”. SFTP is working fine now and thanks to a hack I found, Summerboard is installed and running! It doesn’t work perfectly with 1.1.3 though as it can’t skin the wallpaper (still black) or the dock, but hey. :)

First, watch the original version (or at least the first 15 seconds or so to get the idea of the video):

Now, watch this hilarious “translated” version:

Did you know that the International Organization for Standardization actually has a standard for how to brew tea? How weird and silly.

Rather than making a couple short posts I’ve been meaning to make, here there are crammed into one post.

• Web Developers: When backing up your computer before formatting, don’t forget to backup your MySQL tables too. Don’t be an idiot like me and loose a lot of your work. Thankfully I remembered to backup all my PHP code and I don’t think there was too much of utter importance in my database, but still, what a flippin’ pain in the ass.
• My New Computer: is awesome. It can play any current game on max settings, including Crysis. I love it and you can see the specs right here.
• Happy New Year: Happy New Year, Merry Christmas, etc. Yeah, I’m lazy and put this off. heh
